yeah that's good to hear and up to a point I'd have to agree. Many parts of the UK are still very much centered on the connectedness of the local communities and this is what my first hope that comes through. So for example if we have virtually total loss of the grid (solar storms) then the communities each come together themselves and then with each other for trades, workers, ideas, agricuturally. I can see this being far more likely in more rural areas than the big cities though...

i know this sounds a bit Machiavellian but .....if the sh*t really does hit the fan - you dont want to be anywhere near a city.

Just for example - if we get a big CME strike and the power grids go down. People can panic buy food and water

but say electricity is out for only 2 weeks ... all the sewerage is pumped and therefore needs electricity - if there is a city of 10 million people everyone of which has a toilet backflowing into their house ..... how long before the complete breakdown of society???

my guess 4 days, and im a plumber

even if we re-start everything in 4 weeks, its going to be mayhem

Ive planned 3 months living comfortably, any more than this we go to a subsistence living and god help all of us... plan your route to a safe house in the middle of nowhere - that my suggestion - i can reach mine in 90 min on one tank of diesel

In a post-global disaster world, predators and tyrants will have the best two-way radios, and they'll use them to surveil you at a comfortable distance.

What will you have? Signal flares and red bandannas?

If so, when you least expect it, the predators and tyrants will come to take a spoil and they will torture, rape, and kill without mercy.
